This kid was born to hit.
There’s no two ways about it.
Jacob Cagna burst onto the scene as a freshman with 32 hits, 20 runs scored, 31 RBIs, seven doubles, four home runs, 12 walks, 10 stolen bases and a .368 average. Most seniors would kill for numbers like that.
But Cagna didn’t stop there. He just kept hitting, and hitting, and hitting. He racked up 29 hits as a sophomore, 33 as a junior, then a career-high 38 as a senior. An All-State selection as a senior, Cagna’s career numbers were off the charts. He finished with 132 hits, 105 RBIs, 94 runs scored, an impressive 32 doubles, eight triples, 15 home runs, 48 walks. As a senior, he batted an even .500, raising his career average to .393. It will be a while before Egg Harbor Township High baseball sees another hitter with this kind of pedigree.
